A Brief History of Spirits

Distilled spirits have a rich history that spans thousands of years. From the Bronze Age origins of distillation to the aqua vitae of the Middle Ages, spirits have played a crucial role in cultural and social practices worldwide. Today, fine spirits like whisky, rum, vodka, and gin represent both craftsmanship and heritage. Each type of spirit, from the peaty whiskies of Islay to the rich molasses-based rums of the Caribbean, carries a distinct story shaped by geography, tradition, and the skill of the distillers.
